I could see midgets being added onto the schedule next year. It would become a very nice tune up for the Chili Bowl. Could draw almost as many cars. Especially if they added in the micro or mini sprints and maybe outlaw karts. As far as full size sprints, the vid of the driver testing looked like he wasnt able to get on the gas all the way. A lot of blipping down the straightaway. Are the late models the same way?

Probably take a Racesaver 305 up there and kill'em! The late models do better as far as hooking up, but its very crowded, lot of elbows being thrown.
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Same thoughts that I had. The track is too small for real sprint cars. Midgets might put on a good show.
